    EdgeR Normalization Question

    I am looking to do TMM normalization in an experiment where you have to do pairwise comparisons between 20+ samples in replicates of three (A1, A2, A3 vs B1, B2, B3; A1, A2, A3 vs C1, C2, C3; B1, B2, B3 vs C1,C2, C3 and so on).
    I was thinking that I should normalize all the samples together and then do pairwise comparisons.
    I was wondering how I can get EdgeR to give me the TMM normalized values in a csv file.
    Thanks!

    There's actually no such thing as TMM normalized values. Normalization in edgeR is something that affects the fitted models rather than the data values. As the edgeR User's Guide says:

    "There are methods implemented in edgeR to normalize the counts for compositional bias in sequenced libraries and for diff erences between libraries in sequencing depth. These adjustments are off sets in the models used for testing DE and do not transform the counts in any way."

      Beyond CRISPR/Cas9: Understand, Choose, and Use the Right Genome Editing Tool
      by SEQadmin2



      CRISPR/Cas9 sparked the gene editing revolution for both research and therapeutics.1 But this system still showed severe issues that limited its applications. The most prominent were the heavy reliance on PAM sequences, delivery limitations, double-stranded breaks that prompt unintended edits and cell death, and editing inefficiency (both in targeting and in knock-in reliability).

      Despite this, “CRISPR helped turn genome editing from a specialized technique into

      Proteomic Platforms: How to Choose the Right Analytical Strategy to Improve Detection and Clinical Applications
      by SEQadmin2


      Proteomics platforms are evolving rapidly, with advances in mass spectrometry and affinity-based approaches expanding what researchers can detect and at what scale. As the field moves toward deeper proteome coverage and clinical applications, scientists face an increasingly complex landscape of tools. This article will explore how researchers are navigating these choices to find the right platform for their work.

      The systematic characterization of the human proteome has
